Developer Tools
Build on ANED

The infrastructure layer powering all 18+ ANED Suite products — and open to developers building new applications on top of the platform. Orisun (Git & CI/CD), ANED DB (Backend-as-a-Service), ANED Cloud (PaaS), and ANED AI APIs — everything you need to build for Africa.

The Platform African Developers
Have Been Waiting For.

African developers have had to cobble together tools built for Silicon Valley infrastructure — paying in USD, routing traffic through US or EU data centers, and working around the assumption that everyone has reliable high-bandwidth internet. ANED Developer Tools are built from the ground up for African developers and African infrastructure.

Data residency in Nairobi and Lagos. Pricing in local currencies. SDKs for JavaScript, Python, Go, and Dart. Documentation in English, Swahili, French, and Arabic. And a team in your timezone.

Orisun — Git, CI/CD & DevOps

+
-

A complete Git hosting and CI/CD platform hosted on African infrastructure. Orisun provides code repositories, pull request workflows, automated testing pipelines, and deployment automation — the same tooling used internally by ANED's engineering teams in Nairobi and Lagos for all 18+ ANED Suite products.

CI/CD pipelines are optimized for the reality of African developer connectivity — caching strategies that reduce pipeline times on metered connections, build agents located in East and West Africa to minimize data transfer latency, and integration with Canedo's secrets management so credentials are never exposed in pipeline logs. Native deployment targets include ANED Cloud, AWS, GCP, Azure, and on-premise Kubernetes clusters.

ANED DB — Backend-as-a-Service

+
-

Managed PostgreSQL with auto-generated REST and GraphQL APIs, real-time WebSocket subscriptions, row-level security, built-in authentication, S3-compatible file storage (backed by Tola), and edge functions. The data backbone that every ANED Suite product is built on — now available to external developers.

SDKs in JavaScript (TypeScript-first), Python, Go, and Dart. pgvector support for AI/ML workloads. Multi-tenant architecture with row-level security for SaaS products. Database branching for safe schema migrations. Read replicas in Nairobi and Lagos for low-latency access across East and West Africa.

ANED Cloud — Platform as a Service

+
-

Container-based PaaS for deploying web applications, APIs, background workers, and scheduled jobs — without managing Kubernetes clusters. Push code to Orisun, configure your environment, and ANED Cloud handles provisioning, scaling, TLS, and health monitoring automatically.

Points of Presence in Nairobi (East Africa) and Lagos (West Africa), with automatic traffic routing to the nearest PoP. Auto-scaling based on traffic patterns, with pre-configured scaling profiles for common African traffic surges — end-of-month mobile money spikes, agricultural price data updates, and government service delivery peaks. Pricing in KES, NGN, GHS, and USD.

ANED AI — LLM & NLP APIs

+
-

Access to ANED's African language models, business context embeddings, document understanding, anomaly detection, and carbon credit calculation APIs. Build AI-powered applications without building or hosting your own models — the same AI infrastructure that powers all ANED Suite products is available to developers via clean REST APIs.

Inference runs in ANED's Nairobi and Lagos data centers — dramatically lower latency than routing to US or EU AI endpoints, full data residency on the African continent, and compliance with African data protection laws. Free tier available for startups and NGOs. Rate limits and pricing designed for African developer budgets.

ANED Auth — Identity as a Service

+
-

Production-ready authentication and authorization for your applications — social login, email/password, magic links, OTP via SMS (integrated with African mobile operators), and enterprise SSO via SAML and OIDC. Multi-tenant support with organization-level role and permission management baked in.

Used internally as the identity backbone for all 18+ ANED Suite products and available to developers building on ANED infrastructure. Compliance with African data protection regulations built into the data model — consent management, data subject rights, and audit logging aligned to Kenya DPA, Nigeria NDPR, South Africa POPIA, and Rwanda Data Protection Law.

SDKs, Documentation & Developer Community

+
-

Open-source SDKs in JavaScript (TypeScript), Python, Go, and Dart — the same SDKs used internally by ANED's engineering teams and contributed to openly. API documentation in English, Swahili, French, and Arabic. Interactive API explorer for testing endpoints directly in the browser.

ANED developer community with engineering support from the Nairobi and Lagos teams — not an offshore support queue. Regular office hours, hackathons, and technical workshops at ANED's engineering centers. Startup and NGO program with extended free tiers, mentorship, and co-marketing for products built on ANED infrastructure that serve African communities.

Developer Tools — Full Stack

Every layer of infrastructure
African developers need.

Source Control & CI/CD — Orisun
Orisun Git Hosting

Git repositories hosted on African infrastructure in Nairobi and Lagos. Pull requests, code review, branch protection, and issue tracking — the same Git hosting used internally by ANED's engineering teams for all 18+ products.

Orisun CI/CD Pipelines

Automated testing and deployment pipelines optimized for African connectivity — smart caching to reduce build times on metered connections, build agents in East and West Africa, and native Canedo secrets injection to protect credentials in pipeline logs.

African Build Agents

Dedicated CI/CD build agents located in Nairobi (East Africa) and Lagos (West Africa) — dramatically reducing pipeline latency and data transfer costs compared to routing builds through European or US infrastructure.

Deployment Automation

Zero-downtime deployments to ANED Cloud, AWS, GCP, Azure, and on-premise Kubernetes clusters. Blue/green and canary deployment strategies with automatic rollback on health check failures.

Backend & Data — ANED DB
ANED DB (PostgreSQL BaaS)

Managed PostgreSQL with auto-generated REST and GraphQL APIs, row-level security, built-in auth, pgvector for AI/ML workloads, database branching for safe migrations, and read replicas in Nairobi and Lagos.

REST & GraphQL APIs

Auto-generated REST and GraphQL APIs from your Postgres schema — no backend code needed for standard CRUD operations. SDKs in TypeScript, Python, Go, and Dart with full type safety and IntelliSense support.

Real-time Subscriptions

WebSocket-based real-time data subscriptions — receive instant updates when your database changes. Powers live dashboards, collaborative editing, chat features, and real-time monitoring across applications built on ANED DB.

S3-Compatible File Storage

Object storage backed by Tola — ANED's file management layer. S3-compatible API for easy migration from AWS S3 or GCP Storage. Storage located in East and West Africa for data residency compliance with African data protection laws.

Platform, Identity & Observability
ANED Cloud (PaaS)

Container-based PaaS for deploying apps, APIs, background workers, and scheduled jobs. PoPs in Nairobi and Lagos with automatic traffic routing. Auto-scaling with pre-configured profiles for African traffic surge patterns. Pricing in KES, NGN, GHS, and USD.

ANED Monitor (Observability)

Application health monitoring, error tracking, uptime alerting, and log management. Integrated with Canedo for security event correlation. Custom dashboards for African business metrics — M-Pesa transaction rates, multi-country API latency, and usage by region.

ANED Webhooks & Event Bus

Event-driven integrations — send real-time data events from any ANED Suite module to external systems, third-party services, or custom pipelines. Reliable delivery with automatic retries, dead-letter queues, and delivery audit logs.

AI, Analytics & Advanced Capabilities
ANED AI APIs

Access to ANED's African language models, business context LLMs, document AI, anomaly detection, and carbon credit calculation APIs. Inference in Nairobi and Lagos — lower latency and full data residency on the African continent.

Palo Analytics

Edge Functions & Serverless

Deploy serverless functions at ANED's African edge locations for ultra-low latency API responses. Write in TypeScript or Python; deploy in seconds. Ideal for mobile money webhooks, real-time validation, and API transformation layers.

Multi-Region Deployment
Add-on

Extend beyond East and West Africa PoPs with ANED Cloud deployments in additional African regions — Southern Africa, North Africa, and Central Africa — for the lowest possible latency to users across the continent.
